Hi there, I'm Christina!

I work with individuals from diverse backgrounds facing a wide range of challenges and diagnoses, drawing on both personal and professional experience to provide compassionate, informed care.

My focus

I specialize in working with individuals facing addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, grief, bipolar disorder, borderline personality, OCD, substance use, suicidal ideation, self-harm, anger management, impulse control disorders, mood disorders, and coping skills challenges.

My approach

My therapeutic approach draws upon CBT, DBT, Grief Therapy, Mindfulness-Based techniques, Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma-Focused interventions. I tailor my methods to best serve each client's unique needs.

My communication style

I communicate with empathy, directness, and authenticity. My style is collaborative—I listen intently to understand your perspective, share insights thoughtfully, and work with you to find effective solutions through open and nonjudgmental dialogue.

My journey to mental healthcare

My passion for helping others navigate life's challenges was ignited through my training and deepened through both personal and professional experiences that shaped my understanding of human resilience.

My goals for you

My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Together, we will identify and build upon your strengths, develop effective coping strategies, and foster personal growth and resilience.

Our first session

During our first session, we will discuss what brings you to therapy and collaborate to establish goals tailored to your specific needs and aspirations. This initial meeting allows us to build a foundation of trust and understanding.
